Sure, Aaron,
I get that. But then you lose the other advantage of having the part
linked to the score, if you want to make changes later.
You win some........
That was my point. You have to choose, and the kind of music you're
writing, and how many revisions you anticipate having to make, govern
that decision. I'm not complaining about this - just trying to
understand the choices and, by communicating my thoughts, help others
to make efficient choices.

But you can still do that in Fin07, if you want. Make your score,
extract a part (to a separate file, as you used to do), and do all
the copying you want. Remember that you are not forced to use
linked parts if you don't want to.
